Global Harmony: Care for All

03/27/2024

Here’s a short sermon on the theme of love for one another:

Title: The Commandment of Love

Dear beloved,

We gather today to reflect on a commandment that is central to our faith and existence – the commandment to love one another. “Love one another as I have loved you,” said Jesus (John 13:34). This is not merely a suggestion; it is a directive from the heart of God.

Love is the essence of God’s character, and when we love, we are in harmony with His will. Love is patient and kind; it does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude (1 Corinthians 13:4-5). It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth (1 Corinthians 13:5-6).

To love one another is to see the face of God in every person, regardless of their background, status, or creed. It is to extend grace and forgiveness, just as we have been graciously forgiven. It is to support and uplift, to bear one another’s burdens, and to encourage one another in times of weakness.

In a world that often promotes division and self-interest, let us be beacons of God’s love. Let us reach out to the lonely, the marginalized, and the oppressed. Let us love not just in words, but in actions and in truth (1 John 3:18).

As we depart from this place, may we carry the flame of divine love into our homes, our workplaces, and our communities. May we be known as disciples of Christ by the love we have for one another.

Amen.

May this message inspire and guide us in our daily interactions with others.

How can we practically show love to others?

Practically showing love to others can be done through simple, yet meaningful actions. Here are some ways to express love in a practical manner:

Listening: Give your full attention when someone is speaking to you. Listening shows that you value their thoughts and feelings.

Acts of Service: Help out with tasks without being asked, whether it’s doing chores for a family member or volunteering in your community.

Words of Affirmation: Offer genuine compliments and verbal encouragement to uplift those around you.

Quality Time: Spend time with people, engaging in activities together or simply being present in the moment with them.

Physical Touch: Appropriate physical contact like hugs can convey warmth and comfort.

Giving: Share what you have with others, whether it’s material things like food and clothing, or immaterial like advice and knowledge.

Forgiveness: Show love by forgiving those who have wronged you, letting go of grudges and bitterness.

Remember, love is an action word. It’s about what we do more than what we say. By incorporating these actions into our daily lives, we can create a ripple effect of love and kindness in our communities.

Handling A Big Dog

First, you need to use the proper gear for your dog, such as a collar, a leash, and a harness. Different types of gear have different advantages and disadvantages, depending on your dog’s size, temperament, and training level. You can read more about how to pick out the right collar and leash here

Second, you need to train your dog for walks, especially if they tend to pull or get distracted by other things. You can use treats, commands, and positive reinforcement to teach your dog to walk calmly and obediently by your side. You can also use a body harness or a head collar to control your dog’s movement and direction. You can read more about how to train your dog for walks here

Third, you need to be a better walker yourself. You need to wear comfortable clothing and shoes, hold your leash properly, and be aware of your surroundings. You also need to be confident and calm, and communicate clearly with your dog. You can read more about how to be a better walker here

Good morning, church. Today, I want to talk to you about the cost of discipleship. What does it mean to follow Jesus? What does he expect from us? And what do we gain from him?

In our gospel reading, we see Jesus teaching his disciples about his upcoming suffering, death, and resurrection. He tells them that he must go to Jerusalem, face rejection, be killed, and rise again after three days. This is the first time he reveals his true mission to them, and it is shocking and disturbing.

Peter, who had just confessed that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, cannot accept this. He takes Jesus aside and rebukes him. He says, "No, Lord, this shall never happen to you!" He wants a different kind of Messiah, a powerful and victorious one, not a suffering and dying one.

But Jesus does not appreciate Peter's intervention. He turns around and says to him, "Get behind me, Satan! You do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men." He calls Peter Satan, the adversary, the enemy. He accuses him of thinking like a human, not like God. He tells him to get out of his way, to get behind him, to follow him.

Then he calls the crowd and the other disciples and says to them, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me and for the gospel will save it. What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father's glory with the holy angels."

These are hard words, my friends. Jesus is telling us that following him is not easy or comfortable. It is not about getting what we want or avoiding what we fear. It is not about gaining worldly success or popularity. It is not about being ashamed of him or his message. It is about denying ourselves, our selfish desires, our pride, our ego. It is about taking up our cross, our suffering, our sacrifice, our service. It is about following him, his example, his will, his way.

Jesus is telling us that following him is costly, but it is also rewarding. It is about losing our life, but also finding it. It is about giving up the world, but also gaining our soul. It is about being faithful to him, and also being honored by him.

Jesus is telling us that following him is a matter of life and death, of salvation and judgment, of grace and glory.

So, church, I ask you today: Are you willing to follow Jesus? Are you willing to pay the cost of discipleship? Are you willing to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow him? Are you willing to lose your life for him and for the gospel, and save it? Are you willing to forsake the world and gain your soul? Are you willing to be loyal to him and be welcomed by him?

If you are, then I invite you to join me in this prayer:

Lord Jesus, we thank you for calling us to follow you. We confess that we have often failed to do so. We have often thought like humans, not like God. We have often sought our own interests, not yours. We have often been ashamed of you and your words, not proud of them. Forgive us, Lord, and renew us by your Spirit. Help us, Lord, to follow you faithfully. Help us to deny ourselves, to take up our cross, and to follow you. Help us to lose our life for you and for the gospel, and to save it. Help us to give up the world and to gain our soul. Help us to be loyal to you and to be welcomed by you. In your name we pray. Amen.

HOW TO OVERCOME DRUG ADDICTION

Drug addiction is a complex and chronic condition that affects your brain and body. It can be hard to overcome, but it is possible with the right treatment and support. Here are some tips to help you on your recovery journey:

Seek professional help:

You may benefit from a detoxification program, counseling, medication, or a combination of these options. A qualified addiction specialist can help you find the best treatment plan for your situation and needs.

Find support from others:

You are not alone in your struggle. You can join a support group, such as Narcotics Anonymous or SMART Recovery, where you can share your experiences and learn from others who have been through similar challenges. You can also reach out to your friends, family, or other trusted people who can offer you emotional and practical support.

Learn healthy ways to cope with stress:

Stress is a common trigger for drug use, so it is important to find alternative ways to deal with it. You can try relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, meditation, yoga, or massage. You can also engage in hobbies, activities, or interests that bring you joy and fulfillment.

Be aware of your triggers and avoid them:

Triggers are the people, places, things, or situations that remind you of your drug use and make you crave it. You can identify your triggers by keeping a journal, talking to your therapist, or attending a support group. Once you know your triggers, you can plan ahead on how to avoid them or cope with them if they are unavoidable. For example, you can change your route to work, delete your dealer’s number, or ask a friend to accompany you to a social event.

Cope with your cravings:

Cravings are normal and expected, but they do not last forever. They usually peak within 10 minutes and subside within an hour. You can use various strategies to cope with your cravings, such as distracting yourself, reminding yourself of the reasons why you quit, using positive affirmations, or calling a support person.

Build a meaningful and drug-free life:

Recovery is not just about quitting drugs, but also about creating a new and better life for yourself. You can set realistic and achievable goals for your personal and professional development, such as pursuing education, finding a job, or volunteering. You can also improve your physical and mental health by eating well, exercising regularly, sleeping enough, and seeking treatment for any co-occurring conditions.

Don’t let relapse keep you down:

Relapse is not a sign of failure, but a part of the learning process. If you slip up, don’t give up. Instead, learn from your mistake, identify what went wrong, and take steps to prevent it from happening again. You can also seek help from your treatment provider, support group, or loved ones. Remember that you have the strength and resilience to overcome your addiction.

I hope these tips are helpful to you. You have taken the first step by asking for help, and we commend you for that.

You can do this. We believe in you. 😊
